forces agreement, what we remember as the sofa agreement that was the sticking point in iraq when the pentagon wanted to keep u.s. forces behind and they could not come up with a deal for soldiers and troops left behind so the united states pulled out come completely. a reason the united states wants to keep 10,000 troops in administration has to do with the fact the afghans do not have a functioning airport although the united states has spent hundreds of millions to build one, you can also expect that u.s. forces will stay until april 2014 when afghanistan will have the next presidential election and karzai most likely will be replaced by another president because constitutionally he cannot stay on. >>shepard: thank you, jennifer. in case you were not fully aware the casey anthony trial was a complete debacle now we have proof. a bombshell discovery that may have meant a very different outcome in the case. investigators say someone in the casey anthony household did indeed google "foolproof suffocation method." foolproof. the very day the 2-year-old casey anthony disappeared, fool roof suffo
